My first post. Wednesday Morning's great Saturn occultation by the Moon.
The Moon now at 34% as darkness arrives. Have a good evening all!

Good evening from London! As the UK gets a rain battering, there's a welcome sight as the Moon appears in a gap between clouds. Nice Earthshine too.

Good morning ! Thank you to @peterlewis55.bsky.social for this morning's #FoxOfTheDay

Vixen on the beg! How could you turn down this appeal as she sits outside the back door looking for hand outs? FYI we don't give any encouragement and the local foxes find plenty to scavenge. #FoxOfTheDay #Mammals @chrisgpackham.bsky.social #Winterwatch @photohour.bsky.social

We had some sunshine today!

There's a large group of Sunspots to the east of centre and there's a solar storm heading our way so this could be interesting, flare wise.

6.2% Moon. A tiny crescent, lots of cloud, daylight breaking, just above the horizon.

The toughest of shots but here she is this Friday morning!

It's Fox grooming season! The pair are all loved up and ready to start family planning. Look forward to their cubs turning up in May. #mammals #FoxOfTheDay @chrisgpackham.bsky.social

Tonight I added 2.5 hours worth of data to the Horsehead and Flame Nebulae in Orion. This stack is now nearly 5 hours in total. Such a great area to capture

Ten years since we said goodbye to David Bowie. The boy from Brixton in South London (where this pop up flowered shrine became famous) did rather well!

Good Saturday Mooning all! 55% to 53% waning gibbous Moon from 4am to 8am in between clouds and naps!

Haven't posted a 'Fox in the Snow' photo this winter so, before the thaw, here's one (of a pair) enjoying a bit of sun this morning! #FoxOfTheDay #Mammals @photohour.bsky.social

The Heart and Soul Nebulae. 3 hours worth of remote shooting this evening - far too cold to step outside!

Good morning! A new week/year begins and there's a frozen Moon to greet us.

The end of this year's Wolf Moon this evening as it rose still 'fullish' as it cleared the clouds. A lovely colour! 97.3% waning gibbous.
